The MMQB‘s Peter King is reporting that, according to his sources, Browns GM John Dorsey is prepared to pass on USC’s Sam Darnold with the #1 overall pick and select Wyoming’s Josh Allen.

Since the NFL Draft order was set, Colin has repeatedly said that Darnold is a no-brainer #1 pick for the Browns. Allen, on the other hand, has a huge upside, but the biggest bust potential of any quarterback in this year’s class.

Like in all sports, successful franchises often feast on the mistakes of lesser franchises to build contenders. This would just be the latest example.
